Love, the Confetti Monster xoxox

you were careful to take tiny things only,the things you thought no one would miss:a half-pencil from the DMV,a stack of labels from the post office (which you did not need),gum from your sister's purse andexactly three orange Tic-Tacs, too,gallons of ketchup and soy saucein plastic packets that you will never use,your girlfriend's confidence when she was not paying attention,another man's dignity because he thought he did not care,and then there was the rhyme you thought no one would ever hear.
